6. Deliver on promises

Ruri Hoshino touched it suspiciously, but she didn't touch the coin, she lowered her body again, and stretched her hand further inside.

Natsuhiko pushed the coin in again.

The girl who couldn't touch the coin withdrew her hand, and her face finally showed frustration, which was the expression it should have.

The girl opened her purse, but it was empty.

The coin that fell in was her last money.

Standing in front of the vending machine and hesitating for a while, Ruri Hoshino returned upstairs with coffee and yogurt.

She brought one less can of oolong tea, and was reprimanded by three girls.

What's even more interesting is that Ruri Hoshino didn't receive a penny from the trio.

This is indeed bullying.

Isn't it good to buy me incense with all this money? Do you have to give it to them?

Xia Yan lay on his side on the desk behind the girl, watching.

The time passed quickly, at three o'clock in the afternoon, the last class was over, and it was time for the end of school.

Compared with Huaxia high schools, Japanese high schools are easy and terrible, although this ease is only for ordinary students.

After the bell rings, the students pack their schoolbags and participate in club activities to go to the club, go to the private school, and go home.

Ruri Hoshino did not go home immediately, but went in the opposite direction.

Natsuhiko followed behind her, and twenty minutes later, she saw a hospital.

The girl hesitated for five minutes in front of the hospital, but finally did not go in, turned around and returned home.

Xia Yan watched the girl wash and clean up first, prepare dinner, and after dinner, prepare bath water for her brother and father, and then clean up the dishes and chopsticks.

When everything was done, it was already six o'clock in the evening.

The girl took out her mobile phone, turned on the alarm clock and looked at it.

She set the alarm clock for nine o'clock, and there were two hours left.

It's almost time to burn incense for me? Xia Yan had some expectations in his heart.

Yesterday he ate a wisp of incense, I don't know if he can eat another wisp today.

Recalling the satisfaction of eating incense, Xia Yan couldn't wait.

And according to legend, eating too much incense will also produce strange changes, maybe you can completely get rid of the shackles and become a ghost of a new era of freedom and independence who can go wherever you want.

Without letting Xia Yan wait for a long time, Ruri Hoshino wrote her homework for an hour, took two sticks of incense and a lighter, and walked out of the house.

Wait, you forgot to bring the incense burner!

Natsuhiko followed behind the girl, trying to remind her.

"Glass." A voice rang out.

It was the girl's father, a bearded, somewhat obese man named Daisuke Hoshino.

Seeing the man, Xia Yan felt bad.

I'm afraid he won't be able to eat the incense tonight, and no father will let his daughter go out alone at night.

"Where are you going?" The man asked.

"Go out and buy something." Ruri Hoshino said with her head down.

"That's right, bring me a beer." The man handed Ruri Hoshino a 10,000 yuan bill.

Xia Yan looked at the man dumbfounded, not only did he not stop his daughter when he saw him going out late at night, but he also asked his daughter to buy wine?

The night of the island country is not as good as that of China, not to mention that it is still a suburb.

Ruri Hoshino was not a little surprised, she didn't take the money, said she had it, and walked out of the house.

Before the door closed, Natsuhiko glanced at Daisuke Hoshino, and the man looked indifferent, as if it was not his daughter who was talking to him, but a delivery man.

Frowning and pondering for five minutes, Xia Yan couldn't understand what the situation of the Hoshino family was.

Forget it, eating incense is the most important thing!

Xia Yan happily floated behind Liuli.

The girl walked very slowly, and after half an hour she reached the three-way junction, she took out an incense stick, lit it, and stuck it in the gap of the lamppost.

"I'm sorry." Ruri Hoshino clasped her hands together and muttered.

Xia Yan ignored her and looked intently at the incense in front of him, and in his expectation, a wisp of white smoke with a glow appeared on the incense.

Immediately floating above the incense, Xia Yan inhaled the wisp of incense into his body.

A strong feeling of comfort spread through his body, and this feeling was second only to physical pleasure.

Ruri Hoshino stood to the side, quietly watching the incense burn.

Xia Yan, who had finished eating the incense, looked at the girl, and he felt that the girl's expression was a little blank.

Mu Ran should have it, if Xia Yan was called at home and bullied at school, he would have such an expression.

This kind of expression is much more pleasing to the eye than the usual look in front of the vending machine.

"Are you still there?" Ruri Hoshino asked suddenly.

Natsuhiko, who was in a good mood, responded to her and blew on the back of her neck.

The girl was startled and hurriedly ran forward two steps.

After two steps, she stopped, the fear on her face gone, replaced by a sad look.

"I'll keep my promise." The girl clutched the hem of her clothes tightly and said in the direction of the lamppost.

What promises? Didn't you already burn incense for me? Xia Yan was confused.

Last night, I said that I gave her a day, but I didn't say burning incense?

It's about half an hour until nine o'clock, what the hell does the girl want to do?

Before Natsuhiko could come up with an answer, Ruri Hoshino had already started to act.

She walked eastward.

The city is on the west side of the three-way intersection, and to go east is to get away from the city.

Isn't it time to go buy alcohol? Why go east?

Xia Yan couldn't ask, so he could only float behind with doubts.

One more thing came to his mind.

Hoshino Ruri brought out two sticks of incense, one was burned to him, and the other one?

What is it for?

He couldn't come up with an answer.

With Ruri Hoshino's steps, the lights of the city are getting farther and farther away, and the surroundings are becoming more and more barren.

Twenty minutes later, she came to a bridge.

The bridge looks very old, the cement is exposed, you can see the rough and sharp surface, and there is some garbage scattered on it.

The entrance of the bridge is barricaded with a fence that it is in disrepair and forbidden to be used.

Ruri Hoshino ignored the hint, and she climbed over the fence and onto the bridge.

Coming to the middle of the bridge, the girl lit a second incense stick and placed it on the cement railing.

Xia Yan stared at the incense, but there was no incense on the incense, and it didn't look like it was burned for him.

Ruri Hoshino took out her phone again.

It's eight fifty-nine p.m.

The girl stood by the bridge and waited, and Xia Yan also floated to the side and waited.

The evening breeze blew in the west, and the evening breeze whined, and the sound of water was heard below, and the sound of water rustled.

This atmosphere made Xia Yan's sense of malaise stronger and stronger.

What does the girl want to do?

What exactly is the promise she is talking about?

Finally, when the time came to nine o'clock, the alarm clock rang.

Turning off the alarm, Ruri Hoshino put her phone on the bridge deck, took a deep breath, and grabbed the railing.

A flash of inspiration flashed through Xia Yan's mind.

Won't it ......

Wait a minute!

Without giving him a chance to stop him, the girl climbed onto the railing and leaped forward.

Plop –

A dull sound rang out over the silent waters.
